Giga We obtain a solution of the quasilinear equation -Apu f u in o u 0 on do. Here the nonlinearity f is superlinear at zero and it is located near infinity between two functions that belong to a class of functions where the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition is satisfied. More precisely we consider the class of functions that are asymptotically homogeneous of index q. Copyright 2007 Sebastian Lorca et al.

Introduction Consider the problem -Apu f u in o Zan u 0 on do. Here o is a bounded smooth domain in RN with N 3 and 1 p N. We assume that f R R is a locally Lipschitz function satisfying the condition fl lim. _ f s sp-1 0. It is well known that problems involving the p-Laplacian operator appear in many contexts. Some of these problems come from different areas of applied mathematics and physics. For example they may be found in the study of non-Newtonian fluids nonlinear elasticity and reaction diffusions. For discussions about problems modelled by these boundary value problems see for example 1 . One of the most widely used results for solving problem is the mountain pass theorem. In order to apply this theorem it is necessary that the Euler-Lagrange functional associated to the problem has the Palais-Smale property. One way to ensure this is to 2 Journal of Inequalities and Applications assume that f satisfies some Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz-type condition see . 2 or 3
